A Night Alone

candle light flickering on skin
only a glimpse of fire burning inside
essence of kisses to warm the soul
soft caresses spreading chills of energy
a hand slid through soft hair
remembered scent of heated cologne
a memory so intoxicating not forgotten
warm soft breath, sultry brush against the pillow
eyes half closed, imagining lover inside
dizzy with feelings of love and lust
glistening beads on skin, a run tickles softly
vapor of warm bodies together
illusion of imagined dream
desire to feel warmth of another
a whisper of wanting more relinquished
a deep breath exhaled for no one
slow as a warm summer's night
lost in a moment of profound desire
a hunger not satisfied by sustenance
